What Is That Invisible Character?
Feb 27, 2008
Hey, everybody,
I need your help on figuring out what is this invisible character in one of my data column.
The file is from IBM DB2 as text. I am comparing the data with the one in SQL server. There is one white space at the end of the column I couldn't get rid off.
The text strings from both side look idential except the DB2 one has a "space" at the end.
The len() show it's 13, while the sql one is 12. However, the rtrim()/ltrim() did not get rid of it.
This column is at the end of the row. So it could be CR or LF.
To use padindex or stuff functions, I need to know what is this stuff.
Talking about working hard for "NOTHING".
Thanks!

I am facing a problem of invisible data. I have developed a ASP based application in my local laguage and data is entered from 8 clients. Now I have found that in a particular table in the SQL Server very few data is not visible if I see from the SQL query analyzer. But if I go the application and try to enter the data again it gives a message that the data already exist and next time if i see it from query analyzer the data is displayed.
Please help.

I am not sure why when the packages are run, the components dissapear. The only thing I see is the result in the output.
So there is no visual on the tabs.
Thanks

Recently found a situation which I can not figure out the cause. Wish somebody can help me here.
The scenario is as follows:
Server: SQL 7.0 with SP2
login name: DBA, standard SQL login, member of sysadmins
DB Name: TEST
DBA is the owner of database TEST and a member of db_owners in the database. Using EM, if you look at Users in TEST database, the only entry you can find is DBA where both Names (user name Login Name) are the same: DBA. There's no entry for user dbo. (from BOL, dbo can not be deleted)
Run sp_helpuser gives out two rows.
user login name
dbo NULL
DBA DBA
I don't know what happened to this machine before. Any clue about the possible cause is highly appreciated.

I am trying to locate the "My Reports" folder on the SSRS site, but I dont think I am able to see it. I am an admin on the box with Browser, Content Manager, My Reports roles.
I also tried creating the folder manually and it says the folder exists but I cant see it.
I have also checked on the "Site Settings" and checked the box "Enable My Reports". What else am I missing here?
Thanks,

Is there anyway I could run an Audit trace on SQl Server which records SQL Server System Admin Login/Logout , failed login and machine names I don't want the trace window to show on screen however would like a file generated for later viewing. Also due to Firewall issues we have, We don't have SQL tools enabled to connect to that server.

Hi,
Can I create invisible table in SQL Server 2005?
Access(all versions) has this option if you add Usys_TableName.
The table will be invisible, but you can get data from it

When defaulted to Visible or Invisible, +/- displays correctly. But when using the Expression, + is always showing as the default even when a group is expanded. Is this expected? TIA.

Publisher: SQL Server 2000 SP4
Subscriber: SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition
Sometimes, after a failed merge replication(due to communication error) some rows on the subscriber became invisible for the publisher.
I've reproduced a case:
[START Short Version]
All rows inserted between a comm failed sync and a fine sync became invisible.
This seems to be caused because the subscriber keeps generating rows with the same generation number and the publisher doesn't look for this generation anymore.

I could code a system that checks all the publication tables and updates all the last generation rows in case of communication error but i would really like to avoid doing it.
I don't know if I'm missing something or if this is a bug or a known issue.
This is a big problem for me because communication errors on cellular phone based connection are quite common and users keep working even if there's an error.
Any comment will be appreciated.

I have a table which visibility can be toggled by a text box. By default it is invisible. After it is made visible, clicking a sortable column header makes the table invisible. Does this mean sorting makes the table go back to its default visibility?

Hi, I have 3 report parameters.
If a user selects 'value1' from the first parameter list then parameter list 2 & 3 should be open for the user to make their selection. BUT if the user selects 'value2' from parameter 1 then only parameter list 2 should be open and parameter list 3 invisible. Is this possible??

Hi,
Do you know why when I run my ssis packages in the dev machine, the diagrams are not visible during run time.
I can design the package but not sure why when I start the package, the diagrams in the control flow can not be viewed.
Please note that if I do this on the server, I can see the diagrams during run time.

HI
I have the following scenario in my report.
-The data is displayed in a table
-The table groups by one field
-Each table row calls a subreport
-There is about 6 paramaters in the report
-The last paramater of the list of paramters is a multivalue paramater and based on what is selected in the list the corresponding subreport must be shown.
-So i use a custom vbscript funtion to determine if a specific value was selected or not.
This functionality is working fine.
My problem is if the user does not select all the values in the multi select then i want to make the row invisble
and remove the whitespace so that there is not a gap between the other subreports which is shown.
I can make the subreport invisible inside the row but there is still the white space which does not display very nicly.
How can i make the row invisible if the vbscript function that is called returns a false value?
Here is the funtion I call -> Code.InArray("ValueToSearchFor", Parameters!MultiValueDropDown.Value)
The Function returns a true or false.
Thanks.

I am joining on table A AND Table B ON the accountnumber field. The accountnumber on the tblB has some invisble characters at the end, ie "12344 ". The Table A does not have these invisble chars and is "12344".
Due to the extra spaces at the end, the join fails and does not find a match for that acctno. I have used ltrim(rtrim) hoping that will elimante the extra spaces and find a match.
Heres my qry:
select * from Tbla a
inner join tblb B
on ltrim(rtrim(ACCTNO))=ltrim(rtrim(ACCT))
How do I do this, so that it finds a match and returns the acctno.

Hi.
I found unpleasant issue within RS:
1. Imagine RS report with Table(with interactive sorting) whose visibility is toggled by Textbox:
2. After sorting the Table the Textbox is getting collapsed making the Table invisible. But the Table should remain visible.
Is this MS bug? Are there workarounds?
If my question is not understandable I can send simple *.rdl report with sample.
Thank you in advance for help.

When I log in, my CompanyKey value displays in the label as "21". When I take out the "CompanyKey" variable, and just type in 21, the grid is populated. It is confusing the heck out of me. I have tried it this way:
selectSQL2 = "SELECT * FROM [" & CompanyKey & "]"
-and this way:
selectSQL2 = "SELECT * FROM & CompanyKey
and all the other ways I could think of. I researched it and can just not get it to work any way I do it. Any suggestions? Full code below:

Hi!
I have a table like this below and it doesn't only contain English Names but it also contain Chinese Name.
CREATE TABLE Names
(FirstName NVARCHAR (50),
LastName NVARCHAR (50));
I tried to view the column using SQL Query Analyzer, It didn't display Chinese Character.
I know that SQL Server 2005 is using UCS-2 Encoding and Chinese Character uses Double Byte Character Set (DBCS) Encoding.
I want to read the FirstName and LastName columns and display in Window Form Data Grid and ASP.NET Grid View.
I tried to use this code below and it didn't work. It convert some of the English Name to Chinese Character and it display the chinese character and some still in the original unreadable characters.
Does anybody know how to read those character from SQL Table and display the correct Chinese Character without converting the English Name into Chinese also?
Thanks
int codePage = 950;
StringBuilder message = new StringBuilder();
Encoding targetEncoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(codePage);
byte[] encodedChars= targetEncoding.GetBytes(str);
.
message.AppendLine("Byte representation of '" + str + "' in Code Page '" + codePage + "':");
for (int i = 0; i < encodedChars.Length; i++)
{
message.Append("Byte " + i + ": " + encodedChars);
}
message.AppendLine(" RESULT : " + System.Text.Encoding.Unicode.GetString(encodedChars));
Console.Writeline(message.ToString());

Hello all.
Ok this is going to be a little hard to describe but here goes
I have a table within which one column is used to store a SQL select statement as a string. This means that the whole select statement has to be enclosed within two ' characters. The problem is that the SQL statement itself contains these characters. The specific SQL statement i wish to save as a string is:
select
'<A HREF=DisplayOnlyDiscipline?SESSION_ID=' + :SESSION_ID +
'&DISP_REF=' + cast(DISP_REF as varchar) +
'&EDIT_REF=' + :EDIT_REF + '>' + cast(DISP_REF as varchar) + '</A>' as Reference,
V.DESCRIPTION as Discipline_Stage,
DISP_DATE as Date
from
DISCPLIN D
left outer join
V_DISP V on (V.CODE = D.DISP_CODE)
where
EMPLOY_REF = :EDIT_REF
order by
DISP_DATE DESC
Can anyone suggest how i get round this?
thanks for reading peeps

I have a SQL Server 2000 database which uses a Cyrillic collation. The database itself is in English, but some of the tables contain text which use the Cyrillic character set. When creating an ODBC connection to the database, ODBC forces me to have the "Translate character data" option set, which means that a query or stored procedure parameter containing Cyrillic characters have the Cyrillic characters translated to plain ascii. Data returned from a query or SP with Cyrillic characters work fine.
So the question is: how can I send Cyrillic (unicode) strings to an English SQL Server, without it translating the characters between Workstation and Server? Ideas appreciated.
Thanks,

I've forgotten the character set that I've chosen when I was installing the SQL Server 7. Is there a way to check?
I'm currently using US English version of Windows NT4 and SQL7. But interestingly, all the data is in Japanes characters. It's actually for a Japanese website, and the front-end application is written in ASP. I remember reading somewhere that it is impossible to do certain type of sorting (by some particular order for the Japanese language) as it is limited by the choice of the language of the NT OS.
The type of sorting that I'm looking at is the grouping of 5-characters. One example is in http://www.forest.impress.co.jp/aiueo.html
Would this be possible with my current setup? Or would it help if I migrate over to Windows 2000? (I'd rather not move to Japanese NT4)
Your feedback and advice would be very much appreciated!
